It doesn't surprise me that she wasn't tagged with an abduction status. Going through a lot of cases shows me that they don't use that very commonly. I see lots of Missing At Risk or Endangered Missing or Endangered Runaway. I guess if they don't have evidence they don't always feel like they can say it was an abduction when it could have been voluntary or an accident or the person committed suicide. I have even seen cases with small children (12-13) not labelled as an abduction at least not right away o_O

For us at WS, this case is dead/lost/forgotten without new details/facts/info on the case. IMHO

We currently have five Verified Posters on the LL case, they are as follows:

DomCobb is a verified local/searcher/insiderEnder is a verified insider/localtrackinghounds is a verified insiderAQuietHeart is verified as an insiderSilentone is a verified insider

We seem to have lost a couple of Verified Posters or the first page has not been updated. ??

Trackinghounds has been active here - thank you - you seem genuinely concerned and somewhat haunted by this case - I hope you find the answers you need to reconcile what your hounds have relayed to you! Still curious why the other dogs were or handler was spooked by the river.

What update/info can the other verified insiders offer? Their silence here is deafening.

I continue to be concerned about the welfare of LL and her silence is confusing given all of the details we have been provided.

All I can say is if I hear any news I will gladly pass it on to fellow members. As for "insiders" not posting, maybe they have nothing to add at this time or they could be busy helping to find Linnea in other ways.

I wish that I had something to add, but there is nothing. There was a hopeful lead with a request for volunteers starting at 5 this morning, but it was confirmed that the person in question was not Linnea. Her parents are still earnestly searching. How can you give up as a parent? I don't even think that Craig has been home since the day she went missing. The volunteers have dwindled, but they still want to do what they can to follow every lead if any come in. Volunteers are passing out flyers at the State Fair in hopes that a visitor from somewhere might have seen her. Her parents are very discouraged and sad.

Thanks for coming here and letting us know what's going on. I can appreciate the fact that Linnea's parents are discouraged and sad, but I pray that they have the strength to continue to try and bring her to safety.

7/30!!!!Sheriff holds press conference on missing Lomax
... [sheriff's statement] “Somebody out there has knowledge of where she is. We just want to make sure she’s OK.” ...

... A cell phone left behind by [LL] is also being focused on. ...

... [CL, LL's dad] also said that the family has not been able to speak with the organizations that were trying to help their daughter with her mental breakdown associated with studying for her finals at UC Davis. ...[????? I assume that means Sutter in-patient and out-patient facilities. If so, why not? What reason has Sutter given? I'll assume patient confidentiality issues. Has Sutter been open and clear with LE re LL's care? What can/must Sutter reveal to LE?]

... While unsure of [LL]’s state of mind, [sheriff] said the department is “taking the case so seriously. Any contact … we are looking forward to. I hope she hears this plea.” ...

Thanks for the link Quester. The Mountain Democrat's reporter may have mixed up a comment about not being able to get specific information about Linnea's condition from Sutter Health as not "speaking" to her parents. I'm sure that Sutter has spoken to them, but are unable by law to disclose very much. I would imagine that LE would be in the same situation until they give Sutter Health a subpoena that enables them to have access to Linnea's medical information.

The July 30, 2012 date is interesting as it's tomorrows date. Is it a mistake or does that mean this story will appear in tomorrows print edition?

CA - Linnea Lomax, 19, Sacramento, 26 June 2012

Linnea was last seen in Sacramento, California on June 26, 2012. Linnea had a nervous breakdown during her finals at college. She had been admitted to a Sutter Health psychiatric hospital, but doctors released her on an outpatient basis. The circumstances of her disappearance are unclear.

I know this is neither here nor there, but I am very angry about this case.

I don’t think we’ve been given an honest picture of the events leading up to LL’s “missing” status, her “mental illness”, the reason for her possibly having “voluntarily” left or any subsequent details.

Re event leading up to LL’s “missing” status: We haven’t heard one word from anyone close to LL during her school year at UCD. Not a roommate, suitemate, new friend from UCD, teacher, the UCD nurse, etc. Zip, zilch, nada!

Re “mental illness”: We haven’t been given anything to substantiate that LL was suffering from anything beyond possible anorexia, IMHO. Granted, anorexia is associated with concerning causes and the combination along with typical stressors during college finals week may be the reason for her in-patient stay, IMHO. Please correct me if I am wrong here – but, I’ve seen no substantiation of the following behaviors: “suicidal”, “unreasonable”, “paranoid”, “delusional”, etc, IMHO. There has been no corroboration of “mental illness” by LE at all, IMHO.

Re “voluntarily missing”: One thing that both Sac LE and EDC LE agree upon is that they both believe that LL is alive. Why is that? What info do they already have that leads them to state emphatically that they both think she is alive?

What medication was LL prescribed and, now that she is without, is threatening her life, as has been described?

Please LL team, help me and others, who are also concerned about LL’s welfare, to understand what’s going on in this very nonsensical case.
